I visit this location at least once a week for either dine-in or carry out. Great staff, great management (they're often out and about.. not hiding in the back office). The outback special is wonderful! A tenderly cooked steak and a choice of two sides. I can always count on a fresh salad. If you want a good appetizer, try the ahi tuna or the french fries loaded with cheese and bacon. Be sure to ask that the cheese is layered, they come out perfect! 5 stars!! read more

I went here for my birthday tonight. The food was great. However, the service and experience was very dissapointing. The waiter Justin was very unattenative, and his demeanor seemed like he'd rather being doing something else. He never once refilled our drinks the 2 hours we were there. We opted to skip dessert just to be done with the night. Definately not a good time. read more

Enjoyed Saturday night date night with husband. Highly recommend 4 course meal. Great value: includes Appetizer, soup/salad, main meal & dessert! Ask for Bria, amazing service! read more

I always have had great service at outback! But on Friday Night my friend and I had the best service we ever have had from Ally! She was always getting us what we needed and checking in on us and being extremely nice and respectful!! Will be coming back again ! read more

Amazing! Love the clam chowder. Nikki was our waitress and took really good care of us. Will be back soon :)

Great food and service. Chrissy is the best! Never disappointed. Dinner was great fast service we always ask for chrissy

Good food, good service. Only note here is if you order your steak anything other than well or rare be very specific. Medium often comes one way or ther other and requires sending it back which we hate to do. The staff and management seem very friendly and eager to help so in return we of course always tip well. Enjoy! read more

This was probably the worst meal I've had in quite a long time. The wait was extensive to get a table, which was nothing compared to the wait to get our meals (over an hour). The "filet" I ordered was only slightly thicker than a quarter pounder from McDonalds, which is probably why it was overcooked beyond well, despite being ordered medium rare. It was a perfect match to my wife's overcooked and under seasoned ahi tuna and my mother's wilted chicken salad. Two plus hours on a meal that was nothing if not unfulfilling. read more

Outback is a great place! Are service was good and the space is very spacious. And I would definitely come back! I got the steak with mashed potatoes and broccoli and I would recommend that, also I got the cheesy French fries and they were delicious! read more

We have not been to Outback in awhile and I don't know why. Just had an excellent meal for my sons 20 birthday and it was perfect. Our server, Kimberly, was the best and kept our drinks filled and the food was spaced perfectly. Awesome menu to choose from and just a great time. We will be back more often for sure. read more

I was impressed with the service. Hostess cleaned a table so we could sit in the bar area. Manager served our food and asked if everything was ok. Excellent service! read more

Favorite steakhouse ever. Never have had a bad meal here. Chrissy the bartender is the best. Always helpful and makes great suggestions.

Upon entering my husband and I felt this was just going a pretty regular dining experience, but oh was I wrong. My server, Briahna, was amazing. She definitely helped me with picking out my meal, since I'm so picky. She showed patience and kindness and had smile on the whole time and she didn't forget a thing! She always checked on us at the right time, oh and the food was good. When i come back i will be requesting her as my sever! read more

slow and slow and slow....... every time i come here i ask myself was it worth the wait ... probably not just go to the store and buy myself a fine steak and make it myself would taste better anyways read more

Thanks for the excellent service, Crystal and team! Even when I made a mistake in ordering, they went above and beyond to make it right. The food was cooked perfectly and we will definitely be back soon! read more

This outback sucks, our waiter ignored us for about 20 mins, did not even take our drinks or said hi. We walked out and complained to the manager. The manager offered for us to go back and gave us a different waiter. She also gave us a free dinner. read more

I ordered MEDIUM New York Strip steak with my family members. When they came out, it was MEDIUM RARE filled with FAT all over it. I barely ate the meat because it was filled with so much fat, I just ended up cutting my way around the whole steak as for my family members. We were disappointed when we first saw it, as it was dry, and the waiter was about to judge our meal and say it didn't seem that dry. Excuse me, I am paying nearly $100 in total for my meal. I deserve to speak up about my dish's look. Anyway, we continued to eat. At the end, we asked to see the manager. The manager seemed very unwelcoming, and unfriendly. He just kept asking if we wanted to recook the meat. That's stupid to press us for because we already ate. We didn't ask for the manager at the beginning or middle of our dinner because we didn't want to draw attention and seem rude. Anyway, we said it is ok for him to make us new steaks. Guess what - they just gave us our small pieces of meat recooked. Didn't even give us new ones. And he served us it with a rude and annoyed attitude. Thanks so much, Outback for such a great customer service. read more

Service was friendly, but not very good. Got the steak wrong. Got the baked potato wrong. Got the desert wrong. It was all kind of slow. They never brought out the bread. Quite different from most of backs I've been to in the past. This one is weak read more

I came in from out of town and my wife and I stopped here to eat and the service was great. We ate at the bar and that's were we met Lisa and Amanda. These to made sure everything was perfect and even went out of there way to make sure we had a great time. The food was great thanks to these two. They made recommendations and got the order to us pretty quick. I cant wait to go back there and eat again as long as Lisa and Amanda are working. GREAT JOB keep it up and some day I hope to be eating at a place that Lisa and Amanda run. read more

I came here during veterans day with 2 friends. They were offering free onion rings and a free drink with your meal. Although I had forgotten my ID card, the waitress gave me the excellent deal anyways. The steak I ordered was alittle salty; other then that, service was pretty good and I always support restuarants that give discounts/offerings to the miltary during veterans day! read more

Worst Outback I have ever been to. Fries came out cold (not even close to being luke warm). We asked the server for hot fries, 20 minutes later still no fries. Now that my meal was almost finished, I slid the cold fries onto the table. After being blatantly insulted and accused of throwing food, we were "kindly" asked to leave the restaurant. I don't know what kind of restaurant treats their customers so poorly (especially after spending over $100 at the place). I can assure you that I will not be returning to this particular Outback ever again. read more

I always liked outback but recently the service has been terrible and I come here for a good time and good food. The food isn't the problem it's the people. I came in here with my friend and I and we got put in the corner and never got waited on until 20 min after we got sat. We never got bread after asking twice and everyone around us got bread. This is totally outrageous and uncalled for! Employees lack attention towards certain people! read more

We just had dinner there this weekend. The food was great and the service was helpful

I like to go to both chain restaurants and independently owned restaurants. I like to go to a chain restaurant like Outback because I am always, always guaranteed to get a great meal at all times. I love how consistent the service and food are. I have gone to this Outback in particular many times over the years and they never fail me. The service start to finish is always great, promptly refilling drinks and there is no wait for our food. The steaks are always cooked and seasoned to perfection. My husband got the lamb our most recent visit which he enjoyed. I can never pass up the house salad, or the grilled shrimp, both are so delicious. Outbacks are a great place to go for a family dinner. I would recommend using their call ahead seating option on a weekend it allows you to get in with little wait. Hope you all enjoy it as much as my family and i do!! read more

Great time with 4 generations of my family for last meal together in 2016. Very busy, but service was good. Food came out fairly quick. Would definitely go back again. They even provided samples of blooming onion and cheese fries. read more

I haven't been to Outback in YEARS, but I had such a great experience a few weeks ago, that I thought I'd go ahead and review it. We stopped in for a Saturday lunch, and it was pretty empty. Our server was Arthur. He was great. I'm not a huge Outback fan, but he made the visit well worth a return visit. Very friendly, smiling, professional, and made the experience great overall. I had tilapia with crab meat and some kind of sauce, with a loaded baked potato and steamed veggies. Surprisingly, everything was very good. I rarely eat veggies from these types of restaurants, but they were perfectly steamed and surprisingly delicious. I wasn't a fan of the sauce they used on the tilapia, so I probably wouldn't order it again, but the fish itself was probably some of the best I've had. For dessert, I had the chocolate thunder from down under, which I have always loved. I had the Captain's Mai Tai with the extra shot, which was very good as well. After this visit, I may be a renewed fan of Outback. read more

I've dine-in here four times in the last 4 years. Each time was a poor experience...from the food being too salty or the orders being mishandled. But most of all, poor service by waiting staff. read more

I would like to write a review about their food, but we never got to eat. We walked into an almost empty restaurant for an early dinner. There were 3 or 4 people at the bar and about 4 full tables. It took well over 5 minutes for the host to come to us. He then proceeded to ask us what he could do for us, to which I responded, "are you serving dinner?" What did he think we wanted? After stating "of course" he seated us in a corner. after waiting several minutes, my spouse and child left me their drink orders and went to wash their hands. I never put in the orders, we were ignored again. After waiting several more minutes we got up to leave. THEN and only then did someone acknowledge us. Too little, too late. read more

The appetizer mushrooms are the best of all restaurants. I got the entree with unlimited shrimp and I was definitely expecting a lower quality/attention to cooking since I added the unlimited shrimp.. But I was very impressed with the fried shrimp and how perfect they were cooked. I was a cook for years and I enjoyed the dinner and will return!! read more

Very disappointing last night. Large Filet was very good and perfectly cooked. Bloomin Onion was, as always, superb. Salads Fresh and plentiful. The Salmon was equally good but the disappointing part was the Firecracker Shrimp and Lobster Special. The picture of the selection looked like the "bang bang" shrimp found at other restaurants in the area. What we got was 7 pieces of over fried, "something" and some pink sauce, for $13.99 are you kidding me? The stuffed Tilapia (crab meat) was horrible. the crab meat was something from a TV dinner and the fish portion was small. Bottom line, you want a steak at Premium prices, Outback is the place. if you want fish, go to a local seafood restaurant. It was my fault for ordering fish in Annapolis at an expensive chain restaurant. It was also very hot in the restaurant and the bartenders were very critical of Patrons. We ordered carry out and sat near the register and could overhear very negative comments about an elderly couple who had a lot of questions. Considering I was sitting with my 77 year old dad I was not pleased. read more

This review is for our service experience. Just wanted to pass along our good service from the other night. Sara(h) made our experience better than I've had anywhere lately. It goes to show you what a difference great service is. She was engaging in conversation, not overly attentive, and quite possibly the nicest person I've met. I'll always ask for Sara(h)'s service when going back. She offers what every restaurant needs in their servers!! read more

ZERO STARS!!! Last week ordered prim rib was so burnt couldn't eat it. Wasted 20.00. Tonight ordered prime rib med well. Thinking it wouldn't be burnt it was bloody when cut it blood came out. Couldn't eat that one either. Another 20.00 wasted. Won't be a third time! Do you just not care what you give carryout customers? Won't be back! read more

My experience was a let down considering the reputed two hour wait times. Only successful restaurants command such an inconvenience and this definitely was not one of them. Considering that it is a mid level chain restaurant, I came in with mid level expectations and received service equal to that assertion. The steaks were an abomination. Do not put steak on your sign if you cannot execute on your namesake. My sirloin was devoid of flavor. I could have made a better steak from shoppers, across the street. I would not recommend this location. read more

Stay clear of the Outback located at 2207 Forest Drive, Annapolis, MD. It took 10 minutes to get my bottled water (this wasn't the only service issue). When it did arrive, the bottle looked washed and was already open. It tasted very much like city water, not what I am use to. The manager avoided us and our questions about it. When they opened a new one at the table, it tasted right. They also removed the survey from the check folder when we brought it up when checking out. This makes me wonder about the business practices of this restaurant. Manager also did not give us his name or introduce himself. read more

We have gone to this restaurant many times over the years. Unfortunately this one is going down hill QUICK. That last 3 times that we have been there the hostesses seemed more interested in laughing at the patrons as they walked in the door then seating them. Once we finally did get seated the waitress made it clear that she hates her job.. It took forever to get refills on our drinks and I thought maybe they were killing the cow to get my steak. Once I got the steak it was great, so was the salad, my daughters broccoli was hard as a rock, the noodles in her chicken entree were undercooked as well. We sat listening to a woman in the booth behind us go on and on about one of the hostesses being "snooty" with her and how she would never come back. The manager was called and the hostess who offended came over to give the women a glare and then went back up front to tell her comrades about it. OYE, nope we won't go back. read more

Went into Outback recently and ordered a sirloin. I had to return the first one it was too tough to cut. Sent it back to the kitchen the manager came over and delivered a cup of soup while I waited. The next replacement came out more cooked in the center then the outer rim of the steak. The middle was well done and the outer rim of the steak was bloody and rare. I realize they are running a special on sir loins but the ones I received seemed to have been cooked frozen. Needless to say I won't be going to Outback for a while to come. read more

I expected better--most aspects of our visit were ok, but you can do lots better for the money! My pork chop was overcooked and dry, the salad was uninspiring, the mashed potatoes were almost cold. My wife asked for a knife that never came. We liked the coconut shrimp, but could have used more than the tiny little serving of sauce that came with them. My wife like her beef medallions and broccoli. We were on the patio--they tables would have benefited from a small candle or something and our first table was so rocky we had to move. It was ok but I won't be rushing back. Many better places to eat in Annapolis. read more

Been going here for years and used to love it. Ordered take away last night for our family, waking up throughout the night and this morning we now all have food poisoning. NEVER returning. Very disappointed. read more
